Abstract
The term mesenteric cyst refers to a heterogenous group of cystic lesions that are usually found in the abdomen or in the retroperitoneum. They are a rare entity with an incidence of 1 in 1,00,000 in adults and 1 in 20,000 in children. We wish to present a case of 45 year old gentleman with a large retroperitoneal mesenteric cyst who underwent laparoscopic management of excision of cyst. In our case, the cyst was approximately 10x12 cm and was abutting vital structures like Inferior venacava, ureter and duodenum. We were able to excise the cyst without any spillage and taking care not to injure the surrounding structures.
